Nokia 5800 XpressMusic turns Trekkie for the UK

0

While some phones stay true to a single flick (take Sony Ericsson handsets and any Bond movie ever, for example), some leap around Hollywood like a heiress on a booze binge. One example of the not so loyal? The Nokia 5800. After making its ultra-early debut in The Dark Knight, it’s jumping over to the Star Trek camp.

On May 1st (7 days before the film’s release), UK retailer Phones4u will be slinging the 5800 Star Trek edition in red, blue, and black/silver. It’s free of charge, if you’re willing to lock on to a Vodafone, O2, T-Mobile, or Orange contract. So what makes it Star Trek? Unfortunately, no phaser is included. It does have Star Trek screensavers, wallpapers, and ringtones preloaded – and that’s almost as cool, right? … Right? Anyone?
